(The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Didato-Castillo, Mr. Rose; no, none.) Supplemental Funding, Molecular Biology Research Facility, Chicago (Contract with Capital Development Board) (24) The $48 million Molecular Biology Research Facility was designed as a fourstory building that would house 106 research laboratories and their support facilities. Bids for the project were received by the Capital Development Board in June 1993; and additional funds in the amount of $3,950,000 were required in order to complete the full shell of the building and to fit out the minimally required 90 laboratories. On July 9, 1993, the Board of Trustees authorized a contract between the University and the Capital Development Board to complete the work needed for the facility at the additional cost of $3,950,000. The College of Medicine has now requested that 6,400 square feet of unfinished (shell) space on the fourth floor level of the building be developed to provide eight new laboratory areas with adjacent support spaces. The College of Medicine has committed $1,700,000 for this supplemental work. State statutes provide that the Capital Development Board and the University may contract with each other and other parties on the design and construction of any project to be constructed on University property. Accordingly, the president of the University, with the concurrence of the appropriate administrative officers, recommends that the University now contract with the Capital Development Board in order to finance the work described above at an additional cost of $1,700,000 for the Molecular Biology Research Facility project. University funds are available from the Medical Service Plan and the Hospital Operational Improvements Fund. On motion of Mrs. Calder, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mrs. Calder, Mr. Engelbrecht, Dr. Gindorf, Mr. Lamont, Ms. Lopez, Mrs. O'Malley, Ms. Reese; no, none; absent, Dr. Bacon, Governor Edgar, Mrs. Gravenhorst. (The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Didato-Castillo, Mr. Rose; no, none.)

The first and fourth floors of Clark Hall are used as residential areas whereas the second and third floors have been converted to the main administrative office of the Housing Division. This project is to remodel Clark Hall to comply with the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The scope of the remodeling includes additional parking at the front entry, exterior ramps and walks, automatic exterior doors, installation of an elevator, and remodeling of restrooms. Since the remodeling project was estimated to cost less than $500,000, it was below the threshold cost level for board approval. However, on February 9, 1995, the board authorized the comptroller
